I've hit half a dozen in vehicles ranging from a 1st generation
Escort to a Peterbilt 362.The only problem with using the Pete

Hey Dimitri, rumor has it you are driving south again "soon".  If so, you
may be able to persuade me to conduct a private clinic on refinishing alloy
(bundt) wheels using Wurth silver alloy wheel paint and clear coat.  You
should see the set on my 1985 diamond blue 300TD - sweet! (Although you
will have to overcome revulsion at seeing the 4 new Kumho tires).

Those are pansy a** road rats.  The deer around here do a min of
$4000 damage, and generally more than that.  You are in a for a frame
shop as well as the hood and fenders, grill, lights etc.  THest are
close to 200lbs dressed.

Our old van was "totalled" after hitting the 4th road rat.  Ins. paid
$4000+ and I bought a replacement with 100k miles less for $2000.

One hit pretty much wipes out a 124.

Re: [MBZ] deer in georgia

2013-05-13 Thread Greg Fiorentino
Moose is excellent.  My cousin in Canada has a chain saw (with vegetable oil
in the oiler) dedicated to moose butchering.  Comment to tie this thread in
with the chain saw thread).  When hunting moose, always have a practical
plan for getting the moose from where it is dropped to where it will be
butchered and consumed.

As with deer, I prefer to hit them with a Remington rather than a Benz.
I've had some close calls (with a Volvo), but never actually hit any with a
vehicle.

Sheesh, deer ain't nothing. You hit a 2000# moose and yer dead, nobody even 
bothers to price the damage to the car.

Those are pansy a** road rats.  The deer around here do a min of 
$4000 damage, and generally more than that.  You are in a for a frame 
shop as well as the hood and fenders, grill, lights etc.  THest are 
close to 200lbs dressed.

Our old van was "totalled" after hitting the 4th road rat.  Ins. paid 
$4000+ and I bought a replacement with 100k miles less for $2000.

One hit pretty much wipes out a 124.

Hence the reason for comp insurance and a whole bunch of pretty pictures to
declare sentimental and antique value on the 300d in case I get one.  Takes
4 of 'em t' kill a Volvo 240d...lol

Our deer are large enough.

I've hit three with my 300td

One was mostly just grill and headlight doors, the next was AC 
condenser and fan and grill, headlights, and some damage to radiator 
as well (I glued it up and used it pressurized for another year) as 
tweaking the lip of the hood and bending the radiator support a 
bunch and bending the fan.


Heavy enough!

Then there was the one last month that busted my driver's side 
window and showered me with glass and busted the mirror glass.


By the way, the double sided tape is holding the replacement glass fine


thanks,
